EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the sense of urgency and anticipation as an American passenger, late for the departure of her transatlantic liner at Cherbourg, France in 1922, is transported across the water in a steamboat. The woman, dressed in a fashionable yet practical travel outfit, clutches her luggage as she is hoisted aboard the larger ship using a thick rope. The expression on her face conveys a mix of relief and excitement, as she joins the throng of passengers on board. The image offers a glimpse into the past, when travel by sea was a grand and glamorous affair. Transatlantic liners were the epitome of luxury and adventure, and the journey itself was often as much of an experience as the destination. Passengers would dress up for dinner, attend shows, and socialize with their fellow travelers. Despite the allure of ocean travel, the logistics of boarding a moving vessel could be challenging. The steamboat in this photograph was likely used to transport passengers from the dock to the liner, ensuring they didn't miss their departure. The process of hoisting passengers aboard using ropes was a common sight at ports around the world, and was a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the crew. This historical photograph is a reminder of the romance and adventure of a bygone era, when travel by sea was a truly unique experience. It also highlights the importance of perseverance and adaptability, as the late passenger demonstrates by making it aboard her liner just in time for departure.
